BIG Boy

Look at him!! He's been working on it and finally did it on his own. Yay!! Just one more step towards being a big boy! Just had to share :)

At Last!!

First off I must tell everyone that we finally got grass in the backyard!! It was such a long afternoon and I'm so sore this morning, but it looks really good! It only took 6 hours to do but we got it done :)
The kids had their appointments today at the doctors for their checkups. They both did so good! Madison weighs 30lbs and is in the 25 % for that and is 36.5 inches high which is in the 40% for her. They took her bloodpressure and she did so good. Doctor says everything is good with her. Austin weighs 15 lbs 12 oz which is in the 22% for that and is 25.5 inches which is in the 25% for him. He got his shots and did so good with them. He's such a brave little guy! We started him on carrots and he does ok with them. Tonight it is green beans. We'll see how he likes them :) SO the kids are great and mom and dad are exhausted!! Good times!

First Fishing Trip

New Niece

Tabitha and Clint had their baby yesterday. A little girl they named Lena Rose. She was 8lbs 6oz (I think) and was 20 inches long. Tabitha went in on Wednesday to get induced and about 24 hours later she wasn't' progressing so they decided to do a C-section. I guess she wasn't even positioned to come out naturally. But she is good and has a full head of hair. Mamma is doing good just really tired. I had a feeling they were having a girl. So sweet! And we get to get rid of ALL of Madison's baby clothes YAY!!!
Other than that.....Austin slept all from 7:30-3:30 the night before last. It was so nice, but scary too LOL. I went running in there to make sure he was ok :) He's doing good, really wanting to follow Madison. Going to start carrots tonight for dinner. YUM!
Madison is good. We went fishing on Wednesday and she had so much fun. Her and her daddy caught a fish and she gave it kisses and was all about holding it. After holding the fish she was washing her hands and got her shoes wet. It was such a nice day that we just went ahead and let her play in the water! She got soaked. It was fun to watch her just "let loose". And I was proud of her for not freaking out in her wet clothes. After we got dried off it was a quick trip to the park, another home depot run, dinner, and home. It was a long, but beautiful day with the family! I guess I'll post pictures soon.
Other than that we are just getting the yard ready for grass next week and slowly getting ready to go camping.

Still broken!

SO we thought everything was going good with Charlie but the night before last he had two seizures again. So off to the vet agian where he had another one. The vet said that its common with his breed and it usually starts around his age. He's on some medicine and we are trying to regulate it? Good times! He had another one this morning that lasted longer and seemed harder than the ones before, but he seems ok now.
The kids are great. I think Austin is teething. He loves sucking on his fingers and toes when he can! LOL. Madison is well a three year old I guess. She has this attitude lately that came out of no where. But we still love her!
We are hoping to go fishing this weekend, but we will see how the weather goes. Grass should be coming soon too for the backyard. Can't wait for that!! Ok thats all for now. Austin is awake.

Madison's Party

Madison's birthday was so much fun! And that little girl is so spoiled!! Thank you everyone for all of your birthday gifts and wishes! She had so much fun and really got into her birthday this year which made it really fun for me. I made her cake, a blue tinkerbell one, and made her three little cupcakes cause she wanted three cakes and three balloons. And yes she picked the color blue for it all. And it was so fun to share it all with Aunt Traci who came over for it.

In other good news we got our yard done in the front. Yeah! We got grass, one tree, and five little bushes. Oh it looks so good and makes the house feel more "homey". LOL Madison is super excited to finally have some grass to play one. Thanks again for making Madison's birthday special. Love you all!

Happy Birthday Little Girl!

I can't believe our little Madison is 3!! OH where did the time go. It has been a very beautiful ride with this special girl of ours. We are very blessed! Happy birthday baby!
